: About Me

Recently, I began freelance editing at the urging of friends and family, who have asked me to edit letters, school essays, and other documents over the years. My goal is to provide quality, affordable editing to my clients. My feeling is that editing should be cost-effective and available for everyone, not just those who can afford the outrageous fees charged by most freelance editors.

I graduated from a prestigious private college in Northwestern New Jersey in 2007 with highest honors (3.9 GPA). I received a B.A. in English. Throughout my college career I received numerous awards for my accomplishments in the field of English. I was nominated for the Strickhausen<Memorial Award, and received a Merit Award given by the college in recognition of my writing skills. In 2004, I was a recipient of the United States Achievement Academy's National Collegiate Communication Arts Award for my work as Book Review Editor on the school newspaper. I was actively involved in writing and editing for college newspapers and literary magazines.

I was inducted into Sigma Tau Delta, the National English Honor Society, in 2007. I was inducted into Phi Theta Kappa, International Honor Society, in 2004. I am also a member of the New Jersey Writer's Society.

I continue to be an active reader and writer, two interests that are essential to honing and refining editing skills. Now, my goal is to provide quality, affordable editing.

Style & Beauty > Tattoos & Piercings Are tattoos and body piercings against Catholic teachings?

4 of 8

No, they are not. It is not against any Christian denomination or Catholic denomination. I will explain why. This is another instance of cherry-picking information from the Bible, which some Christians like to do quite often. The passage that these "followers" will use to defend themselves that tattoos and body piercings are against Catholic or any Christian denomination is contained in Leviticus. There are several things wrong with this. First, Leviticus is contained in the Old Testament, otherwise known as the Jewish Torah, or holy book. My first suggestion would be that any Catholic or ...
